Palo Alto Engagement Photography - Joyce and Kevin
Posted July 20th, 2009 in Lifestyle / EngagementIf you’ve driven along Highway 280 in Palo Alto, you’ve probably seen stretches and stretches of open fields. We told Joyce and Kevin to “wear comfortable shoes” and that we may need to “hike a bit”. So…off the beaten path we went.
Joyce and Kevin - Thanks for trekking through all the weeds with us, and we can’t wait for your wedding in two weeks!

Suyun and Eric’s Engagement: Fort Point, San Francisco
Posted July 20th, 2009 in Lifestyle / EngagementIt was a hot summer weekend everywhere in the Bay Area, but on this Saturday morning in San Francisco it was barely a chilly 60 degrees. Suyun and Eric met us at the fog covered Fort Point in San Francisco. As we meandered through the different corridors of this old decommissioned military fort, we found some fabulous angles. After a while, the sun even decided to peek through the fog to give us some great shadows!
Suyun and Eric - Thanks for braving the weather with us, and we can’t wait until your wedding!

Maggie and Lance Wedding: The Athenaeum at Caltech, Pasadena
Posted July 6th, 2009 in Slideshow, WeddingAfter such a great experience working with Christina and Rei last year at the Athenaeum at Caltech, we couldn’t wait to go back to the venue this year for Maggie and Lance’s wedding! I loved how genuine Maggie was in front of the camera and adored her initial reaction when Lance saw her for the first time - the excitement was both on her face and in her body language (check out the slideshow at the end for the full sequence!). They complemented each other well, and she could always bring a smile to his face whenever I asked for it!
We had the pleasure to work with some great vendors:
Hair and Makeup: Kelly Zhang
Florist: The Daily Blossom (Lien Lenh)
DJ: SoCal DJ (Eric Mosqueda)
Cake: Cocoa Bakery (Grace Kam)
Venue Coordinator: Dior Chase
